Review # 1 was written on 2020-02-11 00:00:00 Gary Sombke I really like the Eyewitness Travel series of guides and find that they are excellent tools when planning a trip. The Tokyo version is great, with a comprehensive breakdown of the areas of the city (including suggestions for self-conducted walking tours) and great suggestions for day trips to surrounding areas. This pocket size guide is easy to pack, and contains great maps and handy hints and tips (like what menu items are, which travel passes to buy etc). If you are going to Tokyo, this book is worth the investment.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-04-01 00:00:00 Tl Jh Always a pleasure, DK books. I think this book is best for history, culture and getting by rather than suggested places to eat and even things to see (though we did follow up on suggestions to both). Its survival guide is always full of useful information, small cultural nuances other books miss. Lots of info on the flavours of Japan! But it also had 4 pages on the National History Museum. 4 bloody pages on what my husband said "made samurai swords boring." Get it to understand Tokyo better, not for the sights.
